Apollo’s (Jamie Bamber) Viper pilot spacesuit from sci-fi television series Battlestar Galactica. Lee “Apollo” Adama wore his suit during the episode “Resurrection Ship”, ejecting from the Blackbird and floating through space after preventing the Cylon resurrection ship’s escape.

Made from a thick synthetic fabric, the metallic-green flightsuit includes a pair of black gloves and vest decorated on the back with protective plates. A utility belt is fitted at the waist. The flightsuit features two Major rank pins, a Junior Flight pin and embroidered “Viper”, “Galactica” and “Vigilantes 3” patches on the arms and chest. Adhered to the left leg in a clear vinyl sleeve is a Viper “Pre-Flight Check List”, and the pockets are filled with plastic components. Inside the vest, handwritten in white marker, is “Apollo M-Long #2”, while each glove has labels reading “Bamber”. The suit has a cut in the back to allow access for a harness.

Completing the costume is a helmet and collar. The functional, light-up helmet displays a silver-coloured paint finish with a clear plastic visor. It connects to power packs housed inside the suit’s utility belt that illuminate its interior lights and circulate air to prevent the helmet fogging up. Handwritten “Seelix” and faded “Adama” labels are taped to the helmet’s foam lining.

Presented on a custom-made display, the flightsuit and helmet include studio certificates of authenticity and the original helmet storage bag. Showing signs of wear from age and production use, the costume displays cracks and tears in the metallic-coloured fabric, and the helmet paint is worn and scratched. Dimensions (displayed): 34 cm x 64 cm x 205 cm (13 ½” x 25” x 81”)
